User:Voidxor

I would like to help out with the January NPP drive, as I've participated in the other recent drives. I believe I meet the criteria for the NPR right after reviewing them. Thanks! — voidxor 21:56, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Voidxor: I realise that you're a highly experienced editor, but I'm seeing limited directly involvement with new article work (AfD/AfC/article creation) in your logs, which is the main thing we look for with this right. Could you perhaps elaborate on what other maintainance work (e.g. backlog drives) you've done in the past? – Joe (talk) 10:50, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I participated in the Citation Needed backlog drive in June, and the Unreferenced Articles one in November. — voidxor 14:18, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:CSMention269

I have been an AFC reviewer since March 2024 and am currently on probation. I want this flag to clear the backlog drive for next month (January 2025). Kindly read User_talk:Sohom_Datta#NPR_request for my previous decline cause conversation. ☮️Counter-Strike:Mention 269🕉️(🗨️ ● ✉️ ● 📔) 15:29, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for new page reviewer declined in the past 90 days ([1]). — MusikBot talk 15:30, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) @CSMention269 But you were going to re-request by February 2025. Why this now? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:44, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sure @Vanderwaalforces, at first I thought I have well idea about reviewing pages through AFC. So I just want to explore page curation tool as a part of trial request (I phrased it as "test") to see if I can be adjusted there as well. But when it went declined, I quickly realised that I need to rephrase it, which I later talked to admin Sohom Datta at his talk page, which I stated if again declined, I will apply again on Feb. ☮️Counter-Strike:Mention 269🕉️(🗨️ ● ✉️ ● 📔) 19:27, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So I can participate in the News Page Patrol January backlog drive. I have participated in a New Page Patrol drive before, and wish to help again. :) Mason7512 (talk) 01:45, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:MimirIsSmart

I would like to help out with the NPP backlog drive. I believe I fit all the minimum guidelines; I have a good knowledge of Wikipedia's guidelines and policies and sufficient experience with quality control processes, as I engage with the deletion process, especially PROD and CSD, whenever possible and I help out WikiProjects by writing new articles. I try my best to communicate in a civil manner with editors in communication. In the scenario I get approved for this, I strive to review pages and reduce the backlog strictly on a volunteer basis, to contribute greatly to Wikipedia by reviewing pages with this duty.

User:Yeshivish613

There is a massive backlog which I would love to help out in! Yeshivish613 (talk) 18:53, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Snowycats

I was previously a reviewer, hopeful to return now after illness. I'd like to get back into it, and already into the working again in AFC/vandalism. thanks! Snowycats (talk) 04:10, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:BoyTheKingCanDance

I would very much like to remain a New Page Patroller, please, and to have the three-month period extended indefinitely. I greatly enjoy this aspect of being a Wikipedia editor, and believe that I have made a very positive contribution. In the three months since my NPP rights were last discussed, I have marked as reviewed several hundred pages, some of which I had to edit quite a bit to get them into appropriate shape and others which were created so well that they were really good without me having to do much or anything. I have of course reflected a lot on how best to go about this important task, and to minimize my errors and weak judgements. I am far more cautious than before, and consequently I have actually marked as reviewed far fewer pages per week than I did before. Indeed, when patrolling new pages, I often edit pages for hours each day without marking any at all as reviewed. I am demanding a higher standard in my own mind than hitherto. This does not mean that I have not made mistakes over the last few months. I am human and have made errors. I do not believe there have been many, however, and I consider my efforts to be reliable and trustworthy, but I am disappointed in myself for making any mistakes at all. The key here is that I try hard always to learn from them and not to repeat them. I am neither proud nor disputatious, and I try to treat all fellow editors with respect and pleasantness if they highlight any issue, and I do try to absorb and begin using any and all guidance that I receive. I respectfully ask my fellow editors to see that any errors over the last three months have been very few, and that by percentage of the pages I have edited or marked as reviewed, the errors are a tiny percent, thus establishing me as dependable and trustworthy. I have gratefully received several barnstars for my patrolling throughout this period. I repeat that I regret getting anything wrong at all and aim for zero errors. I am committed to this standard.

 Automated comment This user was granted temporary new page reviewer rights by Barkeep49 (expires 12:44, 5 January 2025 (UTC)) and has had this permission revoked in the past 180 days ([2]). — MusikBot talk 10:50, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) After the ANI thread that caused BTKCD's right to be revoked, I raised concerns and Barkeep49 found them reasonable to give BTKCD a three-month trial reinstatement. I mentioned that during this time, I'd personally watch BTKCD's reviews myself. I am proud to say that he has improved especially based on the feedback he received back then. He used tags appropriately, responded to talk page messages, etc. These are things I'd personally love to see in NPPers. I am supporting the permanence of his NPP right.

User:Vrxces

Managing the NPP backlog is something I've been doing for some time in terms of monitoring video game pages as part of WP:VG. I've been pretty extensively involved in managing drafts, particularly flagging and identifying drafts that do not meet WP:GNG or other reasons, and taking WP:DRAFTIFY, WP:PROD or WP:AFD actions for recently created articles that do not meet WP:GNG. I think the track record with WP:AFD is pretty solid even if it leans to deletionism a little. I've just realised I could be doing something more constructive and marking reviewed pages as well. Believe there was a one-month trial run I did in 2024. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 11:46, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Done for two months. You've mostly been active in the video game area, though it wouldn't hurt to review articles in other subject areas as well. Your AFC logs and talk page feedback for editors with drafts looks good so far, so if no issues with your reviews arise within the next two months or so, I see no problem with granting the right indefinitely.

User:Gauravs 51

I’d like to request temporary NPP rights to participate in the January NPP drive. I have two years of editing experience and meet the criteria. Thank you! Gauravs 51 (talk) 15:19, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Automated comment An extraneous header or other inappropriate text was removed from this request — MusikBot talk 15:20, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Lukewarmbeer

I fit the basic criteria and I think I could make a contribution here. I have a fairly good idea of my limitations and will deal with them by passing on the more difficult new page decisions. I may trouble more experienced editors for guidance from time to time while I get up to speed but I'll be as self contained as possible. Lukewarmbeer (talk) 18:48, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:RedactedHumanoid

I want to help with the backlog, as well as an overall desire to help contribute to Wikipedia in any way I can. I meet the edit number and account age requirements, and I have created about 20-25 articles (only two of which were deleted). RedactedHumanoid (talk) 02:03, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
